[220621 Full Dance Mata Hari] Yong's musical performance

[@karaluthor9053]

now i understand why Moonbyul cried watching her performance. Solar is really amazing!!!.Her dedication is beyond imagination. She did really well.

[@lacipota4565]

Yup, I realized it until now (I guess I’m late) :/

[@KT-bc3ru]

This gives me such Indian classical dance vibes loving it ..she is great

[@lll2282]

Lord shiva, hindu god pose and he is also shown at starting.

[@KT-bc3ru]

@@lll2282 yeahh natrajan pose

[@kelvinvino4688]

INDONESIA LOL

[@menooo6302]

I think that’s Arabian

[@Sunaina2024]

@@menooo6302 nope

[@lynzel5551]

This is just a snippet of the whole play. MIND BLOWING! All praise to Solar's debut as a theater actress. She worked hard for this and it shows in her performance. This just makes me so proud of her. I hope we all get a chance to see this. PLEASE!!!

[@lay_ykbk]

I can see why she's been showered with compliments from everyone. She did great.

[@ELmayberry]

right.. Solar is amazing 😍

[@troublemaker7162]

Am i the only one who thinks she did that Natraj pose(Indian classical). By the way mamamoo never fails to amaze me with their talents... I love them so much. My first kpop girl group😍😍

[@mymusemamamoo]

Mata hari offered herself to bhagwan Shiv while dancing(her words). Hence the Natraj mudras. I've seen some pics of her with Natraj effigy, as well, similar to the stage set up.

[@saptaparnadas4089]

I also though it 😌😌😌😌

[@kimchimasissda3480]

yeah in 1:14 the background was Natraj

[@swanubal508]

and gyou guys are cool with these stage dancers dancing like that and our lord shiva (who is supposed to be bowed down and respected) in his dance form behind them??

[@mymusemamamoo]

@@swanubal508 Yes. They're actors playing a role . This is a Musical (theatre act) based on a real person called Mata Hari. History cannot be changed. Pls do research about her for insight. Edit- btw..do we worship Natraj shiv? I've only seen his worship in south. I remember my mother used to keep natrajan in our house, then some pandit told her to not keep it since tandav brings destruction. In North we don't worship Tandav Shiv. Also, daksh's curse is also the reason.

[@aiavani5887]

She did brilliant ....really respect how dedicated she is.

[@vallaryangela]

Its such a coincidence that matahari and solar have the same meaning and she play matahari perfectly 🤣

[@yayir.kinasih1830]

She learn pole dance and now belly dance... WOOOW after 8yrs debut she's still willing to learn. It's amazing

[@mymusemamamoo]

(Editing my mistakes). I thoroughly went through a lot of literary & media contents about Mata Hari, from Paulo Coelho to Maria Bhukhoninia, and the reviews of them from diff ppl. No, Mata Hari wasn't a badperson at all, she wasn't at fault. She didn't did it for attention or obsession (as I mentioned in my unedited comment out of my selective info.) Mata Hari was a woman who did everything to give a decent life to herself & her daughter,. Tried several jobs & finally forged a career in dancing & took it to heights of celebrity. Her story is just so tragic, she was used and manipulated again & again by men in the society and at the end executed by 12 men for crimes she never committed. Solar worked so hard to justify the character sketch of MATA HARI. MATA Hari acquainted dances from East Indian cultures. .. & I can tell you the mudras were so good! TRUST ME,every angle & position of even the fingers matter. She practiced it to perfection! She did justice to MATA HARI', She did justice to the Mudras, She did justice to the dance. As an Indian moomoo, I can't be more proud. 🇮🇳 🙏

[@scarletseidr]

Thank you for this, it made me curious about Mata Hari and I want to read her story, 🥺 Would reading Mata Hari by Paulo Coelho be enough to know about her? If you have other suggestions, I would love to know 💖

[@mymusemamamoo]

@@scarletseidr yes, Paulo Coelho's The Spy would be a good start but this would not be enough. The Spy is too short to be called a novel, imo. Also, I felt he was a tad bit manipulative with the story and tried to enforce his own idea of "independent woman" which didn't justified mata hari. But overall it's good for a beginning.

[@mymusemamamoo]

@@scarletseidr tbh, literary department has always shown mata hari, either very naive or a femme fatal with no story or struggle. Mata hari has her own diary called "the diary of mata hari". Tho there's always a chance of manipulation in diaries of those ppl who were a cover scene for powerfuls, but still you can prefer it. ² paradise lost by Terrance d Williamson (series book) is also good. It gives more detail than 'the spy'.

[@scarletseidr]

@@mymusemamamoo thank you thank you! I will check them!

[@veerathesoulharvester1509]

Its Dutch East Indies (Indonesia) not East Indian

[@jammycobra]

I couldn't help but smile the whole time! So amazed by Yong! She did fantastic!

[@hachimitsumoo]

Im gonna cry. I still can't believe that she was a musical actress now. She is so amazing im so proud of her :')

[@soumyaaverma3444]

0:27 that move was just ✨ amazing ✨ , 0:32 She said Durga maa, 0:47 she said Shiv dev, 0:55 she said Guru dev, 3:29 again that ✨ Amazing ✨ move. The way she puts Indian Classical dance moves in her song *MATAHARI* is just very beautiful ❤️💕

[@honeybeemoo]

Woah.....I'm really at a loss for words. Solar's vocals were ethereal, and her dancing...well, her hard work shows, I can say that much. Her movements are fluid, but sharp and strong when needed. But her aura...she really isn't Solar while performing this. So proud of her ❤️ Of course, the poses taken from Indian classical dancing aren't perfectly executed, but I'll be more surprised if they were. Classical dancing takes *years* of single-minded dedication, determination, patience and practice, that can never be achieved by anyone in a couple of months

[@mymusemamamoo]

Exactly, the mudras are perfect for a person learning for just 2 months, because it actually takes ages. So, I don't have any unsettlements. Mata hari learned the dance from Malaysian culture & mixed it with her dances, maybe they've the similar culture as us. I mean bharatvarsh, was very vast & the southern Indian kings expanded their empire greatly towards Vietnam, Indonesia, and southern belt. We know, Shri Ram's is worshiped in all these countries so maybe Bhagwan Shiv as well(?) Hence the Natraj mudras...(?) What do you think. [Actually, I was worried after I read a cmnt yst, trying to blame solar for disrespecting our culture. They were saying she's belly dancing in front of a temple 😅 so I just wanted more opinions, you're the only Indian moo Ik:) ]

[@honeybeemoo]

@@mymusemamamoo According to Wikipedia, Mata Hari learned the dancing style during her stay at the eastern part of the Java island. She studied Indonesian culture, and her stage name appearantly comes from the local malay language. I won't guarantee the accuracy of the information because I haven't read any books or articles on her. Also, the South Indian 'Chola' kings actually raided some south-east Asian islands and conquered them with their powerful navies. As usual, they implemented their own religion and culture(aka Hinduism and south Indian Hindu culture) in the local population. This is how Ramayana, Mahabharata and other Indian puranas got introduced in those parts and spread to the surrounding regions as well. Over the centuries, these stories took on new forms with descriptions of Ramayana unique to these regions(these differ from the Ramayana we know by a bit). They even perform the stories of Ramayana with colourful costumes, singing and dancing, which is(/was until colonisation) extremely popular among them. The article I read about this topic was only about Ramayana and its diverse re-tellings in south-east Asian countries, so I don't know much about how Lord Shiva is seen there. But I guess it'd be pretty similar for almost all of our puranas. So that's where the cultural similarity comes from.They were basically made to accept this new culture, so as it often happens in history, they accepted it and then did their own thing with it. What is 'cmnt yst' btw? Well, that someone probably didn't know or missed the whole point that Solar is playing a character, so she's not exactly doing her own thing here, just portraying someone else

[@mymusemamamoo]

@@honeybeemoo oh, I'm I sorry I confused it. I checked she lived in Java & sumatra tho the name 'MATA HARI' is malay (for sun) (Cmnt yst = comment yesterday ☻️) Tysm, I just wanted a reassurance that ppl in India are not misunderstanding it. It worried me so much.

[@honeybeemoo]

@@mymusemamamoo Well, Indians who *aren't informed* about these topics will probably still misunderstand it, since this part of history is not taught in schools(I was lucky to come across that article). I'm glad I'm not one of them though

[@mymusemamamoo]

@@honeybeemoo yep! Same here. I'm also glad, I'm not them. OK, bye, see ya~

[@asthakanojia1514]

it is very similar to our India goddess and some moves are also similar even some the sound too , it's good to see solar performing it .❤❤

[@mymusemamamoo]

Yes, She did the Natraj pose & mudras. She's playing the role of MATA Hari who used to say she offers herself to bhagwan Shiv during the dance.

[@skyv1428]

Fellow Indians! At 0:29 you can see our god of dance Nataraj on the screen and solar striking that pose, gosh she slayed

[@maricar1722]

I cried watching this, you can really see her hard works. She's really amazing and we are so proud of her. 😭😭💛💛❤️

[@losercrewsolar7202]

Woah, Solar seriously put her passion and hard work into this musical!! I really admire her dedication

Omg if only I could see this in person!! This is on a whole another level, I mean I was hearing so many good things but there's only so much I can imagine. Seeing this video just shows me how talented solar is!

[@modestyqueen4649]

While I was watching this performance I wondered how the people who said MAMAMOO can’t dance feel because it’s a straight slap on there faces it show how versatile they can be

[@mangakuota122]

Beside, is dance really necessary to all music??,, dance need a music, but not the other way around.

[@Holly220U]

I’ve been off KZbin for a minute so I’m just now seeing this and wow that’s all I can say is wow. I’m so happy to see what the girls are doing with there solo careers because it’s just bringing out more of their talents to the world and they deserve all the love they’re getting.

[@JoyHope]

Mata hari is hindu artist she claimed herself as daughter of hindu temple dancer and she originally came from Netherlands..! This is for those who was confused! I love the way Solar give us Indian classical vibes.. As you can see behind her there's Nataraj symbol (Lord shiva) )It was a symbol of Indian culture and was also named the lord of dance!

[@readytowearpyjamas]

Omg she is just wow she is amazing and I’m so happy that she experienced this because she really deserved it❤️❤️

[@lanbchop]

Omo that was so mesmerizing… she captured the essence of mata hari so well 😳☺️

[@camillec.1001]

This is very new , she deliver the performance very well. ✨

[@moomoo6922]

Solar is absolutely amazing 😭 The belly dance would have been even more alluring if the garment was worn a little lower on her waist like belly dancers do, it accentuates their hip movements.

[@jpacampara21]

she shone on that stage brighter than any other i love you yongsun

[@crazy_for_kpop562]

The mix of many culture's steps.. 😭 But people still won't understand that their was natraj lord in background.. an Indian god..

[@agatahighstein]

DAMN!!!!! of course we knew she was going to serve vocals, and we knew that she has amazing stage presence, and we knew that she’s an amazing dancer, but I did not expect her to be that good at this specific style of dancing. She hasn’t really shown this style at all in Mamamoo choreography. This was fantastic! It looks like she really did study some belly dancing or some similar style of dance. Her isolation style is just fantastic. Amazing job Solar!

[@meiyyy8952]

The dance move is so beautiful, traditional dance always the best

직접 본 입장에서 저 무대는 시바 신에게 의탁해서 지금까지의 마가레타 젤르를 파괴하고 마타하리로 다시 탄생하는 장면이라고 느꼈어요. 신전이 무대위로 옮겨진거죠.

[@trinhvietanh9521]

dear everyone. If anyone read my comment, can we figure out a way to get Solar on broadway? She is beautiful, have an insanely good vocal, she act and dance so well. I’m an international new moomoo (just knew about mamamoo as well as kpop for about a month) and also a hardcore fan of broadway. This talent doesn’t appear on broadway is such a waste. And a broadway musical will get them a lot more international attention. (I new she is not fluent in English but I trust Solar will give her 200% effort, I’ve seen her perform some disney song and those are more than incredible)
